If you're starting to prepare for the holiday season, you know that an exceptional Christmas lighting display is always on the list. When choosing from the plethora of colors, shapes, and sizes, you might encounter the terms C6, C7, and C9 Christmas lights. These letter-number duos are used in identifying the shape and size of Christmas lights. C6 lights are the smallest of the three and are strawberry-shaped, while C7 bulbs are bigger and more rounded. Meanwhile, C9 bulbs are the largest among the three and the best lights you can use for your holiday lighting display. Their size and bright illumination will create a showy and vibrant display on your property in South Dakota that will make your home or business stand out!


What's the difference between C6, C7, and C9 lights?

When choosing your light bulbs for your holiday lighting display, you might come across the terms C6, C7, and C9. These terms are simply identifiers of the shape and size of the Christmas lights. Learn more about them below:

  • C6 lights are the smallest among the three. They are strawberry-shaped and feature the classic look of Christmas lights. C6 lights are typically 3/4 of an inch wide and 1 inch tall, so they're ideal for lighting the perimeter of your home or business. They do not shine as brightly as other lights but can be a charming addition to your holiday lighting display.
  • C7 lights are larger than C6 but smaller than C9 bulbs. They are around 1.5 inches long and 1 inch wide, so while they're a similar shape to C6, they can look more rounded and bulbous. They are also generally a little brighter and work well along your roof or pergolas.
  • C9 lights are the largest of these bulbs. Still, with the classic strawberry shape of Christmas lights, C9 lights are the largest among the three. They are 1 1/4 inches round and 2.5 inches tall, and they're even brighter than C7 lights. C9 lights are also versatile when it comes to design options because they can be used in different applications!
